Wow - tougher than stills? It's pretty tough out there in that world.
Is the work both in gaming and in films? Are corporations that used to produce industrials commissioning any of this work?
I am seeing the expectations of even YouTube videos going up. People expect them to rival Hollywood production values.
In terms of tools, should they learn Maya, Onyx - should they choose schools that focus on the tools?
Tech school? Community college? University?
I have heard the number/pay in the field is on the wane. Why? Digital tools getting faster and faster?
I would love a guest lecture, either in person or through a Google+ hangout. I have 260 students in what is basically an intro to mass media class in the fall, mostly freshmen. Part of the challenge in the class is to help them sort through career options.
Thanks so much -

Sure fire away. Right now its probably a tougher road then stills photography. I basically only do VFX when called now I make no effort to pursue the work. the work for Primeval NW was done in December for CBC (canada) I am in the process of reopening my still photo studio and just doing Features on the side through indie work.this is the company I have right now with 2 partners. www.whiteboxsuite.com That runs in tandem with my studio where we try to get integrated campaigns where we are doing both the stills and live action parts of projects.
I know a person in Detroit who might come talk to your students.On Sun, Aug 11, 2013 at 11:56 AM, B. L. Bucqueroux <lansingonline@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:
I looked at the video of your work listed under your name. I would love your advice for students of mine who want to embark on a similar career.--On Sun, Aug 11, 2013 at 2:18 PM, Randy Little <randyslittle@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:British version first.

Randy just talking about the US adaptation or version that he has worked on. I don't have cable so I have to watch when it gets on the Internet.RoyIn a message dated 8/11/2013 3:45:27 A.M.

I find your choice of movies quite unpleasant as we are actually quite nice people. You paint Americans as totally evil.
